The truth is that for most people, day-to-day driving only requires them to have 30-40 miles of range, if that. As battery technology improves I’d fully expect even smaller/cheaper batteries to have 100 miles of range (depending on the car) which gives them even more flexibility when combined with a small and efficient engine which can be used to extend range to an almost limitless degree.
Of course Musk’s recent behavior will also have played a major role in souring many people on a Tesla, if not other electric vehicles.
